    Free Candy Tour // Episode 1 A Verification Situation in New Zealand

    • Series Page

    Every winter we fantasize about moving to New Zealand, so this year we did. Well, “move” in a very loose sense of the word—we bought a van and have been scouring the South Island for singletrack and sketchy situations.

    Now, finally “down undah,” we’re enjoying the simple life and riding our bikes a stupid amount in order to ready ourselves for race season. From Christchurch to Queenstown to Nelson, we’re headed where the trails, races and good times take us.

    Day three was cancelled due to torrential rain. The weather cleared a few days after the race, and we rode what would have been the final course, Wakamarina track. This bar at the bottom of the trail would make a great investment for someone, as we surely aren’t the only delirious mountain bikers to stumble in here post-ride and order the whole menu.
